The time is far overdue for us to make some serious changes in the way we consume the Earth's resources and produce pollution. Contemporary life has been built on the assumption that we would always have enough oil, clean water, lumber, and other resouces and that our planet could deal with whatever pollution we threw its way. But these assumptions have proven false. We have learned that green building, energy conservation, low carbon emissions, and environmental consciousness are key to curbing global warming and ensuring the health of our planet.
